CF: I have chosen to perform a poem/spoken word that is very personal to me. I may not be what you expected or wanted, but I am everything that I need to be.

If we are near the end, I will go down being my authentic self. ❤️‍🔥

I have also prepared a poem; sorry Ruby!
not nearly as elegant as Ruby's.
However, mine will be written below as i think it's more impactful for everyone to read it themselves. This was created with a view to see what is hidden and speak what we dare not tell ourselves but what we all want to hear.

Proud by Eden Gardens

Be brave enough to take off the mask you where, out there
get to know the you underneath.
Be vulnerable enough to accept your flaws
and know that they are what make you human
they are what make you real.
Be confident enough to accept and cherish your strengths.
Don't minimise or hide them
they are your beautiful gifts to share with the world.
Be brave enough to say...
you know what
all of this is who i am.
I make so many mistakes,
I can be forgetful,
I am messy,
I am flawed.
But...
I am doing the best with what i've got,
and i am so proud of that,
I am so proud of me
and i am proud of who i'm becoming.
I am enough. I am proud.

On the runway i wanted to embody pride; not LGBT pride as it first appears but the pride to embrace the every and the all around us; our identity, our body. Our everything draped in pride.

Yess poetry slam! ✨

Beautiful words Nicky 💜

Bwahahahahahahahahaahahah

Talent Show Look

https://imgur.com/a/RkUbOSx

At my work the dress code policy is for ‘male’ to wear jacket, tie, shirt and trousers whilst ‘female’ members of staff have ‘smart attire’ as their dress code. There is currently no gender-neutral policy. As someone who doesn’t fully identify as being male, I have found this difficult in recent months. I have decided to reclaim this dress code using my dress code. This look is dedicated to my sisters Plai and Klaus as fellow ‘neurodivergents’ as my suit is covered in the autism awareness colours and logos. I’m proud to be autistic and I feel like this look embodies that.

My true talent is teaching so I thought I would bring my classroom to Drag Race.

I will share the video of my performance on the Skype group.

La Cucaracha

Talent: Well, where do I start? In this submission, I am showcasing many things! I'll write this in points because paragraphs are boring.

1.        I am going to perform 21 songs in only 3 minutes!
2.        The whole thing will be performed ACAPELLA (aka, not over musical instruments)
3.        The songs will all be in Arabic, and they will be in 5 different dialects, and will have different tempos/genres!
4.        The progression of the songs will actually take you on a journey of discovering the evolution of Arabic Music, because as we move from one song to the next, we would be moving from the 1930s to the 2000s chronologically
5.        Oh, and because I am extra, I decided to bless you all with a music video
6.        A music video starring me … well actually, a music video starring … my face. You’ll understand what I mean when you watch, but that face you see from start to finish, is mine! And if you don’t know how I look like, here’s me :) https://imgur.com/a/VdBEavs!

Intro: So in this music video, I start out lying in bed, worried, with the talent show on my mind, and when I finally go to sleep, well, you get a glimpse at my dreams – a whole new world of La Cucaracha, THE RECORDING ARTIST!

Well, what are you waiting for! Enjoy my talent showcase! Here is the link:

~ ZSA ZSA TEA TALENT SHOW ~

In my real life, away from all the virtual drag and Tengaged related stuff, I have a strong passion for track and field. Now while it may seem random, I really wanted to incorporate my love for it and honestly my one and only real talent in this All Winners talent show!

Now I bet you’re still wondering well how tf are you gonna make that fit a drag race competition and baby I’ll just say wait and see. I absolutely loved bringing my two worlds together and am very happy to showcase this!

CF: Well this was a hard runway look to complete but I love a challenge. I wanted it obviously to be high level drag but of course I have to wear the short shorts that you do in track and field but give it this futuristic twist! I’m ready to hit the track…wanna join me?
